"For one week, Black Rock City is the 5th largest city in Nevada. Population just under 40,000.

Yes there are porta-potties, but there are no showers. Everything you need to exist for one week, including the water you bathe in, must be brought in with you -and- taken out as well. There isn't trash collection or receptacles at burning man.

However, there is a hospital (med-tent), a fire department, a post office, a DMV (department of mutant vehicles) and an airport.

The only things allowed to be sold at BMan are ice (at Camp Arctica) and the beverages sold at Center Camp (tea, coffee, lemonade). You can't buy food at B-man or charge admission for anything."
